Wow,that cluster looks like it came out of a Volvo class 8 truck,like a VN chassis.I work on several with the same message center in the center.Looking closer at the picture,the headlamp switch is the same as an '05 volvo.Is that air gauges I see on
the right next to the fuel gauge.does it have a stalk control to toggle through the
functions on the message center

Looks like an RV custom conversion. You would have to track down the OEM conversion company. There is lots of them and very few go into that kind of detail.

Nice Van, hard to believe it got 400kkm on it already.

The car is in North of Norway
message center in the center isnt there its only a reflection, thats what the seller told me. I cant see what all the gauges tell. I have never seen that cluster on any Ford van.

Think there is something wrong her. Wrong pictur in this ad. Hard to belive that rpm is red already at 2500 rpm. And he is doing 90mph at 1400 rpm. Cant be a picture from a ford van.
Cant make out the gauges. Fake picture i think. Mybe the speedo isnt mph as he told me. Its kmh and then its right to think this is from an volvo truck ore something

at the angle of picture to get dash you should see some hood if it was a volvo.
I would lay money that is 90 kilometers on speedo.

I would like to see a better picture or a list of the 8 guages in the dash.

Since the left and right sides don't match, I an guessing it has been in the body shop.

The tach looks wrong green from 1100 to 1800, goes red at 2300.
speedo could be right with KPH, last numbers look like 120
Looks like a temp guage to the left of the orange.
Looks like a fuel guage to the right of the orange.
The two right hand guages look like they are supposed to be almost straight up, looks green there if you blow the picture up some, but still can't read the markings on them, volts and oil pressure are my guess.
Far left top looks like it is yellow at the right of the scale, but the needle is at the far left of the scale, tranny temp?
Bottom far left, just numbers and almost at the top of the scale, boost guage?

Strange dash for sure, but a cool one if that IS what the guages are.

I thought this was a picture you took of the dash.That is a Volvo VN class chassis.
the two gauges to the right are air tank pressure gauges,fuel gauge is next,under
speedo.message center is showing outside temp(top)distance to empty(middle)
and fuel economy(bottom),odometer is very bottom right of message center.coolant
level gauge is under tachometer,bottom left is engine oil pressure.and the upper left
is boost.At this angle,you could not see the hood,because they slope downward.A
VHD or VT have extended hoods.I suspect that this picture was put in by mistake.
